Rated 1 out of 5
by egg, 9 days agoit's been useful to me in the past but recently ive been seeing a lot of people being falsely flagged. treat a flag by this extension as a warning, not a rule, and check for yourself if someones marked. really hoping they improve this extension but until trans/nonbinary people stop being flagged for nothing my review will stay the same

- Rated 1 out of 5by Ash, an hour agoI've been using Shinigami Eyes for years now, and I thought it was a resource that I could trust as a transgender man. Evidently, I was wrong. I'm beyond disappointed that the dev(s) are stooping to the levels of bigotry I once trusted them to alert me to.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Sorceress Eve, 2 hours agoOnce upon a time, this extension was decent (never been more).
Whilst I haven't seen it myself (due to rarely accessing sites where this extension even works, which is another problem with it for another time). I believe my trans brothers, sisters, and siblings that this extension has been marking trans-masc, non-binary, intersex people, and people of colour as anti-trans for talking about their own unique issues/struggles.
And from what they've said, this extension has become the very thing it swore to fight against. If you believe in human rights at all, stay away from this disgrace of an extension. - Rated 1 out of 5by shar, 7 hours agoUsed to be a helpful addon, but more recently I keep finding accounts that are falsely flagged as transphobic purely for the account being run by transmasculine or intersex individuals. There are also a number of accounts that are marked trans-friendly by this addon that utilize transphobia against other trans people on a regular basis. Devs/moderators also don't consider slurs targeting nonbinary and transmasc individuals to be transphobic.
- Rated 1 out of 5by grae, 7 hours agothis used to be useful, but has recently repeatedly marked pro-trans people, including very open advocates for the transgender community, as transphobic.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Limesar, 8 hours agoyou'd think the developer(s) for this kind of extension would aim to support ALL kinds of trans people... and yet recently, that hasn't been the case.
just to list a few examples:
--transmascs and trans people of color talking about their experiences have been getting flagged as transphobic, even when they very much advocate for trans people
--intersex people and advocates have similarly been getting flagged as transphobic, especially intersex women who describe themselves using the term "afab transfem"
--a recent change to the guidelines has decided that using transphobic/enby-phobic slurs is no longer enough on its own to justify being marked as transphobic (to add further insult to injury, these slurs were downplayed merely as "mean words" to "communicate perceived problems within the trans community")
it's very disheartening to see what was once a nice, reliable extension being used to exclude subgroups of trans people instead. this sort of behavior only serves to hurt the trans community as a whole, and i can't in good conscience recommend this to anyone who *actually* wishes to support trans, nonbinary, and intersex people. - Rated 1 out of 5by Astral, 10 hours agoRun by a hate group who are actively targeting people of color, intersex people, transmasc people. Radical terrorists. This needs to be removed.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18725654, a day agoUnreliable, and beind used maliciously to target the very people it was intended to safeguard. Sort of like categorizing individuals in an either/or binary is not an ideal method of moralization.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Toreador, 3 days agoI used to love this extension, but now I gotta say, it's no longer working as intended. One of the instructions to "Mark as anti-trans{...}opposition to gender-affirming care and enby-phobia." is being ignored or dismissed - I have seen people marked red who are actively defending nonbinary, intersex & even other binary trans people, and some of the most vitriolic hatred towards other trans people (as in actual calls for violence, as in "I hope these people get put down like dogs") from accounts marked green.
It feels like this service is increasingly being used to facilitate & legitimize intracommunity oppression and drama (eg, someone who said all transphobia is bad is marked as red & that is frequently an argument used against her), and frankly, life's too short for that. If this isn't resolved, I'm unfortunately gonna have to part ways with this extension – I can use my own understanding of how transphobia works & is disseminated. - Rated 1 out of 5by FfoxUser22475, 4 days agoUsed to be a very useful addon, but lately (maybe due to a change of who's in charge?) has been flagging accounts for things that really shouldn't be flagged, such as people who talk about intersex and transmasc issues.
This shouldn't be used for infighting. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18721403, 4 days agoMore and more often I'm finding people maliciously and incorrectly flagged red to silence them because people don't like them. Talk about trans men having issues? Flagged red because apparently that's transphobic now. Call for unity in trans communities instead of infighting? Apparently that's transphobic now. Talk about transphobia in trans spaces or other bigotry in trans spaces and trying to find ways to make our communities safer for each other? Apparently that's also transphobia now. Great idea in theory but it's being so much more widely misused as to be useless now. I would stay away for now. Uninstalling it myself because it's genuine just easier to manually check users I'm unsure about at this point.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18720375, 5 days agoGood in concept. However, I've been recently seeing a concerning amount of (pro-trans) intersex advocates marked a anti-trans. Transmasc and nonbinary advocates have been targeted too, as well as trans women who support them.
Furthermore, the developer(s) have unfortunately shown an intersexist and anti-nonbinary attitude in responses to some reviews, as well as their official guidelines (the assumption that "AFAB transfemme" is necessarily an anti-trans false flag when it is a label most often used by intersex people for one, as well as the assertion that "theyfab", an anti-nonbinary slur popularized on 4chan, isn't transphobic).
This is making me think the moderator(s) are using this extension as a weapon for intra-community discourse, which is antithetical to the goal of creating a safe community for all trans people. - Rated 1 out of 5by thisthingsucks, 5 days agoThis is the only time I have ever bothered to review an extension, really good for people like me who like infighting and human suffering
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17608767, 6 days agoUsed to be very useful, but now is being weaponized against transmasc and intersex people for talking about their experiences and oppression

- Rated 1 out of 5by moz, 6 days agothis add-on used to be fantastic, but apparently the author of the plugin not only approves of but also has started advocating marking intersex, non-binary, and trans men / trans masculine people as transphobic (making their name red). this is absolutely unacceptable and i will no longer be using this extension, despite it having been a great help prior.
- Rated 1 out of 5by catboy, 6 days agowhile i really like the concept of this, the metrics by which users are being categorized bothers me. why are people who are ADVOCATING for nonbinary/intersex/transmasc people getting marked red (transphobic)?? i kind of wanna make a better version of this actually but idk if i will... maybe over christmas break. ah well...
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14037023, 7 days agoIf people who are not transphobic, but advocating for intersex, non-binary, transmasc people are marked as red, this is no longer a tool that is useful for my safety online, but just another intersexist tool
